[webkit-dev] Why there is objc code in WebCore/bindings

[Ryosuke Niwa]

They're used to create Objective-C bindings on Mac port:
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/DisplayWebContent/DisplayWebContent.html

Since the target language is Objective-C, it necessarily invokes some
Objective-C code.

If you're interested in looking at JavaScript binding code, look at js
subdirectory instead.
